Obituary Overview
Rudy O. Sund
SUND, Rudy O.
April 1929 – October 2018
« Life is a daring adventure and getting old a privilege. »
Having lived the good life Rudy Sund was content to return to the eternal cosmic start dust we have evolved from.
The son of Swedish mother Anna and Norwegian father Ottar, he was born in April of 1929. He was not a Viking, but ventured into many careers including logging, railroading, construction, architecture, marketing, finance, and real estate.
Earlier in life, along with his younger sister Carol (Patterson), he grieved the loss of his brother Vernor (7yrs) and brother Roger (33yrs).
Rudy is grateful for his first wife Sonja who blessed their union with sons Douglas and Murray, daughters Janine and Gail (Joe Sullivan), and grandchildren Cara, Jesse, and Tayler.
In latter years he was able to retire early with his second wife Mavis (daughters Cathy and Linda, and son Dave) to California to escape the harsh Alberta winters and enjoy summers in Camrose.
Rudy was able to enjoy golf, swimming, many a good hand of cards, and also authored a weekly column in the Coachella Valley Desert Song. Rudy traveled often, walked many beaches, strolled The Great Wall of China, dined at the Casbah in Tangiers, cruised the Norwegian fjords and is now one with the Universe.
A celebration of life has been planned for the summer of 2019 at Vasa Park, Pigeon Lake.
Peace to you all.
